Sinopse

2025 Christy Award Winner 
 
Every family has its secrets 
Josephina "Joey" Harris wouldn't mind if her family still had a few of their own after a lawsuit tarnishes their name. When an opportunity opens to become a temporary keeper of a decommissioned lighthouse on a North Carolina island, she takes the opportunity to escape the scrutiny of her small town to oversee its restoration.   
  
Soon Joey discovers strange notes tucked deep in the crevices of the lighthouse's old stone walls--pages torn from a keeper's log recounting harrowing rescues at sea. When things start to go amiss on the island, locals are convinced that it is the ghost of the lighthouse keeper and his daughter who were lost at sea during World War II.  
 
As Joey sifts through decades of rumors and legends and puts together the pieces of the past, a love story emerges--one that's clearly not over yet.

    Lady Kiera Darby and her dashing husband, Sebastian Gage, hope they've finally found peace after a tumultuous summer, but long-buried family secrets soon threaten to unravel their lives . . . 
     
     
     
    October 1832. Kiera is enjoying the slower pace of the English countryside. She, Sebastian, and their infant daughter have accompanied her father-in-law, Lord Gage, home so that he can recuperate from the injuries he sustained in a foiled attempt on his life. But as the chill of autumn sweeps across the land, they receive a summons from an unexpected quarter. Lord Gage's estranged uncle—a member of the notorious Roscarrock family—has been murdered, and his family is desperate for answers. Despite Lord Gage's protests, Kiera and Sebastian press on to Cornwall to assist. 
     
     
     
    It isn't long before they discover that almost nothing is as it seems among the Roscarrocks, and they've been lured to their isolated cove under false pretenses. There are whispers of a lost treasure and frightening allusions to a series of murders stretching back decades that touch the lives of the family personally. Kiera and Sebastian are left with no choice but to uncover the truth before the secrets of the past threaten to destroy them all.

    Edith is convinced that Janushek's former employer, the mysterious Doctor Farley, holds the key to an antidote for dragon venom—her only hope to free the man she loves. Her ruse to obtain it leads her to London's shadowy East End and a plot as sensational as one of her own detective novels. 
     
     
     
    As Edith goes deeper into a city far more serpentine than she ever dreamed, she begins to question what Farley is really searching for . . . and if the cost to save Simon might be more than she can pay. 
     
     
     
    Book 4 of The Secrets of Ormdale takes Edith from the heights of London society to its darkest slums, where unexpected dragons follow and her survival lies not in her hands, but in the hands of her friends.

    Warning: Explicit Content. An ENF Submissive Female Story of Intense Humiliation. "Pretty Teachers, Nasty Pretty Teachers, Nasty Students" Series. In each of these titillating tales, you will meet one sweet, lovely, and very modest teacher who finds herself at the mercy of her less-than-wholesome students! 
      
    Suzanne Palmer, a fetching but modest forty-eight-year-old woman, is as thrilled as any woman could possibly be! The teacher of a Photography for Men class at a retirement community in Florida, she is always in search of successful photographers to come and teach one of her classes. But today, she’s hit the jackpot! The legendary and world-renowned Matthew Rodgers has agreed to come in! 
      
    Suzanne is on cloud nine! Matthew Rodgers is her all-time hero, and when he arrives, she discovers that he is strikingly handsome as well! But what starts off as thrilling quickly turns to mortifying. Matthew Rodgers, she discovers, got his start in the business by photographing aspiring porn actresses for their portfolios—nude, of course. And after taking one look at her, he suddenly announces that his class will consist of a reenactment of his former job! 
      
    And, of course, as she’s the only woman in the room, he wants her to play the part of the model! Suzanne is outraged. She couldn’t possibly do that! Not in a million years! Oh, but this isn’t just anyone asking her to take her clothes off in front of him and her eleven students. This is Matthew Rodgers! You don’t say no to a man of his renown! 
      
    And the poses are, to put it mildly, lewd. This would be royally humiliating for any woman. But for a woman as modest as Suzanne, it’s nothing short of a nightmare. But then, when she is asked to “go the extra mile” for her photographer by offering her body to him, things go from a nightmare to a dream—a nightmare and a dream, actually!
